Wink Re: xj8/1998 handbrake shoes re-fit.

OK.Thanks to all who viewed.I have sussed it all out now.Suddenly realised that the bottom spring has a long and a short tail.So must be fitted the right way round otherwise it`s impossible to get the shoes to fit in correctly.
We all have to learn someday I guess!
